USA Annexation Threats: Is Dangote Assets in Danger of Been Seized by the United States government should they annex Nigeria.

“It is no coincidence that many products on Nigeria’s import ban lists are items in which Dangote has major interests. Although an undiluted success in terms of wealth accumulation, Dangote personifies the duality in Nigeria’s economy. On one hand, Dangote imports significant amounts of US produce and equipment for his manufacturing ventures. On the other, he has had success blocking trade and investment that might compete with his enterprises.”

These are some of the words that introduce the American diplomatic cable about the business model of Nigeria’s richest individual. This cable, which was one of the thousands leaked by Wikileaks in 2009 detailed the U.S. government’s position on the source of Dangote’s wealth and its effect on the Nigerian economy. Its assessment was honest, direct and scathing – this guy is bad news for everybody except himself.

No foreign interference allowed. We will not allow anyone to use Dangote or any Nigerian to threaten our national security.
God bless Nigeria for ever!

Seize his asset as per what?

Except if “Oil” is the same as “Christian” to Trump and his MAGA people.

USA that has more 300 active refineries...
USA has one of the one highest oil reserves...

Seizing assets is not an option.

Fact

There are no Threats.

Who is the halfwit that came up with this article? When did US ever threaten to annex Nigeria? Threatening to go after terrorists that the Nigerian government has clearly refused to go after, is not annexation. The author of this article is dumb.

At least una go school, make una no dey reason like Chaaba

If the US ever annexes Nigeria, they will be too busy with the logistics of governance to think about Dangote's assets.

When the British annexed Nigeria and merged North and South together they never imagined after independence in 1960 we will become the corruption, poverty and most crime ridden country in the world.
